I've got aluminium on my current van but would prefer GRP - more "ding" proof and much more easily repaired.

GRP on the roof also provides resistance to hail, as I found out on a recent trip in France when we were bombarded Sad

I once reversed into a caravan parked in the Calais dock parking area, or at least that's what the owner said, I didn't feel a thing! Apparently he was on one foot just getting into bed and the shunt knocked him over. To cut a long story short we examined his caravan the next morning in fine detail and couldn't find a scratch. We surmised that a, he was having me on, or b,the rear panel had simply bent and then sprung back. If so then it must be GRP for me.
